Re: virgin internet down in newark area
ish dude. I am in Lincoln and have just woke up. I am getting full speed but it is very sluggish and webpages are taking a few secs to load. MSN wouldn't connect first 2 tries and I still can't get into hotmail. Something dodgy is a foot.

Re: virgin internet down in newark area
ebuyer.com still fails in LN1.

dns lookup succeeds in ping tool but reports 100% packet loss.

Something is seriously borked methinks.

Same here no ebuyer.com, also some PC mag sites I frequent are broken or partially broken (pcadvisor.co.uk) Others are having the same problems on the official Virgin Forum with MS sites

I have this problem too with Microsoft sites.
Broadband here has been in complete disarray since last Thursday !! even tho service status reported 'good' every time we looked. I spent several hours on the phone to CS, and was told they won't guarantee it's fully back in operation until Wednesday (been promised 5 days credit on the bill).
Internet working this morning, but can't use Microsoft Live Messenger, and can't access any other MS sites either (except I have been able to get Hotmail).

Just tried, and I cant access ebuyer either.
